Ingredients

• 4 pieces chicken breasts
• 1 large (julienned) carrot
• 1 medium (julienned) zucchini
• 1 small (julienned) red bell pepper
• 1 cup baby spinach
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 12 pieces toothpicks

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil it.

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts on a clean cutting board and butterfly them—slice horizontally through the middle, but not all the way through, so they open up like a book.

Step 3

Use a meat tenderizer to pound each chicken breast to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning evenly over both sides of each chicken breast.

Step 5

Lay a handful of julienned carrots, zucchini, red bell peppers, and a few spinach leaves on one end of each chicken breast. Top each vegetable stack with a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 6

Carefully roll up each chicken breast tightly, starting from the end where the vegetables are stacked. Secure each roll with 2-3 toothpicks to prevent it from unraveling.

Step 7

Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken roll ups for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.

Step 8

Once seared, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake the chicken roll ups for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the roll ups rest for 5 minutes before removing the toothpicks.

Step 10

Slice the roll ups into rounds, if desired, or serve them whole. Enjoy warm with your favorite dipping sauce or side salad.
